Shelton High School
IS
State Supt. of Public
Louis Bruno this week
the official announcement
the amount of cutback in state
IPort funds which school
would have to absorb in
budget expenditures
$6 per pupil. (Districts were
tted earlier to expect a cut
$5 - $7.)
"In order to stay within the
appropriation authorized
the legislature for operating
Schools this 1970-71 fiscal
r, we now find it necessary to
their operating funds by

of $371 basic support per
the school year 1970-71,
$365.
"We are watching very closely
~economic situation of the state
should enrollments continue
than anticipated and
the 1 per cent real estate
tax revenue decline further,
we may have to reduce the
more.
"We realize this cut in state
)Port poses an almost
~hic situation for school
which have contracted
Personnel and services.
"By late spring we should be
able to reassess the economic
situation and if there is money
available, we will restore funds to
school districts, even if it is only
50 cents, 75 cents or $I per
pupil."
The decision regarding
cutbacks in the per pupil support
figure was based on these facts,
Bruno said:
1. Enrollments are higher than
anticipated. As of Nov. 1, the
school enrollment is 787,801
which would indicate an annual
average of 785,040. This is, on
the annual average, about 4,000
pupils more than projected.
2. The dropout rate between
Oct. and Nov. is less than the rate
for the same period for the past
several years. People appear not
to be leaving the state in the
numbers expected.
3. The income from the 1 per
cent real estate tax has dropped in
a greater amount than the State
Dept. of Revenue predicted.
4. The combination of higher
enrollments and lower tax
revenues requires the use of more
state dollars to maintain the per
pupil guarantee.

DRESS CODE
As the nippy weather starts
setting in girls are asking a very
familiar question "Will we be
allowed to wear pants while it is
so cold."
At the present time the
Senate is working on a proposal
to be sent before the
administration.
Last week the Senate took a
survey to see what the students
thought about the present dress
code and what types of changes if
any they would like to see in the
dress code.
THANKSGIVING
Students will not be attending
school tomorrow and Friday in
celebration of Thanksgiving.
All who have meditated on
the art of governing mankind have
been convinced that the fate of
empires depends on the education
of youth.
Educated men are as much
superior to uneducated men as
the living are to the dead.
